Amazon is back with its Amazon Prime Big Deal Days for 2024, a two-day October sales event exclusive to Amazon Prime customers. In keeping with previous years and its better-known Amazon Prime Day sale in the summer, it promises once again to be a great time to pick up some of the best technology on the market at a healthy discount.
Some of the best deals we often see are on the best smartwatches and fitness trackers, and Amazon Prime Big Deal Days can be a great time to snag yourself a new Apple Watch.
Apple’s 2024 event has been and gone, and the Apple Watch Series 10 has been on the shelves for a few weeks, as has its new black titanium Apple Watch Ultra 2. With the Apple Watch SE sticking around, and older models like the Series 9 and Series 8 also in play, there’s a wealth of opportunity to save big on Apple Watch this year.
So whether you’re looking for an upgrade or that very first Apple Watch, here’s what you need to know to snag yourself a bargain.
When is the Amazon Prime's Big Deal Days sale?
The Amazon Prime Big Deal Days event will take place on October 8-9, usually beginning at midnight on the first day. As mentioned, it’s an exclusive sale for Amazon Prime members, but you can sign up with a free trial period and cancel after the sale ends. While it’s worth scoping out both days, broadly the best deals happen early on in the sale, so there’s not often any advantage to waiting around for prices to drop.
Track your prices
You can probably guess that prices of products often change in the run-up to sales events in order to make discounts seem heftier than they actually are. That’s why it pays to track prices, or at least have a good idea of what you should be looking to pay for each model. Here’s the previous lowest price of each of the current Apple Watch lineup.
- Apple Watch SE: $169/£197/AU$348
- Apple Watch Series 10 $369/£399/AU$809
- Apple Watch Ultra 2 $689/£799/AU$1,397
If you can find an Apple Watch at these prices or less, then you can guarantee that you’ve found yourself a pretty good bargain.
